Espresso malt balls from Economy Candy = fountain of youth. They are the fuel that powered me down the street to the New Museum and up four floors in the apple-flavored Jolly Rancher green elevators. The sugar rush lead to the zine exhibit on view as part of The Generational: Younger Than Jesus. Several dozen recent publications were laid out on a low table ready for reading. Paging through them affirmed that self publishing is going strong. Even as some of the works brigde between print and online, they still need to assert their objectness.
And I was thrilled to find a number of that were publications featured in A Few Zines included, thanks to Brian Sholis, who helped organize that part of the show.
